New Guards Posters on website

If you look under longsword, dusack and polearms sections there is a high resolution poster sized image showing all guards used for these 3 weapons (well amost all the guards anyways)
They are poster sized so you can take them down to Kinkos/fedex and have them turn them into a poster for about 5-10 bucks. They are intended as guard trransition references (zufechten) for the study groups to use in class to help keep people working on the historical positions with proper form.

Thanks Nathan glad it is of some use to you guys. We have many ideas but little time to get them done.
Any feedback is always welcome and we especially appreciate any input from the people who use it.

This can well and properly be divided into three main parts, namely the beginning, the middle, and the end.

all i would say is maybe include later down the line a poster for transitioning between stances would be excellent. but that is great and having the various profiles really helps and the close ups on the hands.

How do you mean?
perhaps a video is best for the transitioning, which in Meyer is quite different than many opthers I think, at least my application of it is.

yes video might be best just when i saw it well waited for it to load i got the image in my head of old school kung fu posters with arrows pointing from one stance to the next into a cycle that can be repeated just a caveat i had when i saw it :lol:
